Copper and metal theft continues to be a significant issue across North America and poses a significant threat to public safety and national security at many electrical utility and telecommunications facilities. In addition, many small businesses are also impacted by metal theft from storage yards leading to significant losses in both material and production delays.

Scrap Theft Alert is a new component of the program developed by the recycling industry to disseminate information on thefts in a timely manner to recyclers within a geographic area of the theft.

This service is available free of charge to anyone experiencing metal theft. Information provided by the victim is quickly distributed to both law enforcement agencies and recycling operators in the area and forms part of the theft prevention strategy employed by recycling members.
